Vox Populi, our weekly live chat on the week’s events begins tonight at 7:00pm PDT. Hope to see you then!

AdLib7 days ago

Hey Beatlex!

AdLib7 days ago

Don’t forget to say “Hi!” or “Trump’s in the Dumps!” when you arrive!

AdLib7 days ago

Ah, Summer nights…

AdLib7 days ago

Oh shyte, I forgot it was Friday! Hey Peeps.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hey KT! Happy Friday!

AdLib7 days ago

Same to you Ad. gee, what shall we talk about?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hmm…not much going on this week, hard to decide…

AdLib7 days ago

Slow news day! HOLY JEEBUS!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

I’ll tell you though, you really see how much racist hatred is pent up in too many Americans when a black man is the bad guy.

AdLib7 days ago

Oh man, I took a glance at Yahoo, and man the racists were coming out of the woodwork. It was disgusting.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

When black men are being murdered, it’s their fault that they didn’t obey cops properly. When they murder white people, they’re animals who should be put down.

AdLib7 days ago

Yes, saw that! On many sites, I was on the local NBC Dallas station’s site and the aggressive racism was rampant.

AdLib7 days ago

I must say, That this terrible incident did not surprise me. What surprises me is that it didn’t happen sooner. I’m not condoning it, but I’m certainly not surprised.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Unapologetic racism. Trump voters without a doubt!

AdLib7 days ago

Oh, no doubt.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

America has a very serious problem, more than one, actually.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

I have to agree and I am even surprised it was only one mentally unstable individual. Of course, it’s horrible, just as far as cause and effect goes, it seemed like there could only be so many murders of innocent white men and cops always getting off, that eventually someone would act out. I think it drove him off the edge, seeing both of thoose men murdered.

AdLib7 days ago

Did you see Trump’s robotic, script-reading response? It was as inauthentic as a plastic pickle.

AdLib7 days ago

no, I missed that. I was wondering if he was going to spout off, as usual.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Don’t worry, it will get swept under the rug once again by the Repubs and white elite who don’t want to admit racism still exists.

AdLib7 days ago

Yeah the shootings in Minn and Lousiana definitely were a motivating factor.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Did you see the Lt Gov of Texas go full metal racist?

AdLib7 days ago

Missed that too. I watched a lot of vids about covering the shooting.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Those videos back to back were pretty disturbing.

AdLib7 days ago

Man, somebody tell these misanthropes that it’s the frickin 21st century now!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

MSNBC had a banner up all day, “BREAKING NEWS!” while they just repeated the same info over and over. I seriously am considering a false advertising suit against them…well…maybe not so seriously.

AdLib7 days ago

Check this out: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick of Texas on Friday called the protesters assembled in Dallas the night before “hypocrites” for expecting police protection from the sniper fire while they were protesting police violence. “All those protesters last night, they ran the other way expecting the men and women in blue to turn around and protect them,” Mr. Patrick told Fox News. “What hypocrites!” Mr. Patrick also blamed protesters for creating volatile situations like the one in Dallas the night before, which ended with five law enforcement officers dead and seven officers and two civilians wounded. “And I understand the First Amendment, I understand freedom of speech, and I defend it,” he said. “It is in our Constitution, it is in our soul, but you can’t go out on social media and mainstream media and everywhere else and say that the police are racist, that the police are hateful, the police are killers.” He added: “Too many in the general public who aren’t criminals but have a big mouth are creating situations like we saw last night.” http://www.nytimes.com/live/news-dallas-shooting-protest/texas-lt-gov-dan-patrick-calls-dallas-protesters-hypocrites-for-running-from-snipers-bullets/

Texas Lieutenant Governor Calls Protesters ‘Hypocrites’Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick of Texas on Friday called the protesters assembled in Dallas the night before “hypocrites” for expecting police protection from the sniper fire while they were…

AdLib7 days ago

That sounds like them. I watched a bit of Morning Joe and was irked about how they kept going on about how “shocking,” this was. They have been reporting the killings of innocent black men for over a year now, and they’re shocked? Give me a fucking break. What, are they that out of touch with reality?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

I hurt for you my American friends.I am not a good enough writer to express what I think is going on in your country.The whys,the causes.I believe it all can be explained in the inequality that has existed for so long.It has manisfested itself in so many ways.Money(corporations) are winning.Playing on fear and pitting groups groups against each other is at the heart of the strategy.In a weird way I think the election of Barack Obama has exposed it all.Most whites did not vote for him.With times being tough,it was not hard to convince a lot of them to rebel.Trump exposed it in a big way.Maybe this will all lead to an explosion of sorts,and a real dialogue can take place

Beatlex

7 days ago

Man, what a scumbag!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

It’s like The Joker said in The Dark Knight, people only freak out when the people who aren’t expected to be killed are killed. When black people are slaughtered, that’s what happens in America. But policeman? That’s shocking. Don’t mean to make light of the murders of innocent officers, it is shocking but so should the deaths of innocent black Americans, one after another on an almost weekly basis.

AdLib7 days ago

It’s not really new, unfortunately. It’s been worse, in the past. But we’re getting there.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

So true.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Beatlex – It is so complex, so many factors in the ongoing destabilization of American society. Racism, economic inequity, plutocracy and political corruption, poverty and poor education…but nothing is as explosive as racism.

AdLib7 days ago

Trump actually said the right thing today.It must have killed him to have to stick to a script

Beatlex

7 days ago

Probably better that the racism of Trump supporting types is out in the open. It should disgust most voters. Can you imagine the institutionalized racism that would follow if Trump was President?

AdLib7 days ago

Beatlex – He looked like he was tied to a chair with a fire creeping up on him.

AdLib7 days ago

At the risk of being hyperbolic and sounding a bit paranoid, this incident is an extended result of the war on drugs, and how it’s so violently waged. Police don’t actually do just police work any longer. They also wage an active war on American citizens, and by a large majority, black American citizens.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Ad,I have to believe that people won’t elect him.But things are crazy.Hillary has proven to be a very flawed candidate

Beatlex

7 days ago

to put it in Breaking Bad terms, Trump is a blow fish! He puffs himself up to ten times his real size, but it’s all air.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – I do agree that the racist aspect of the War on Drugs positioned police as enemies of black people, seeing them as a race as the enemy.

AdLib7 days ago

And not to mentione the militarization of police forces. In a way, this is Orwell’s 1984.

AdLib7 days ago

absolutely, and it’s made black people afraid of and distrustful of the police. That creates one really volatile atmosphere.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Sadly true, Ad. Not to the extent that Orwell predicted, but we getting too damned close.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – Not only that, Trump is a Better Call Saul con man and crook.

AdLib7 days ago

Well, at least Saul was likable, sort of.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Trump is an idiot.He has no idea how to govern,and does not have the capacity to learn.If there is anything good about him,it is that he has exposed the R’s for what they are.But that is cold comfort.They will have to change I hope

Beatlex

7 days ago

That’s about it B!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – Maybe about as close as reality and America can come to 1984. Total surveillence, police state and Trump trying to be elected as Dictator In Chief.

AdLib7 days ago

OZZZ!

Beatlex

7 days ago

Hey P! How goes it?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

That’s too close for comfort.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hi all. How is don the Con these days?

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

KT – True, I liked Saul (especially in the new series). But the con man aspect is very similar.

AdLib7 days ago

still full of shyte.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hey PPO!

AdLib7 days ago

Slippin Jimmy!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Don the Con is going down, down, down! Repubs are still trying to prevent his nomination! No one wants to be his VP except for two has-beens and no one’s attending the GOP Convention…that’s in 2 weeks! Not enough time for Trump to recover!

AdLib7 days ago

What’s the matter with you lot over there? Shootins all over the place. Is there no end in sight?

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

Heh! Slippin Jimmy indeed!

AdLib7 days ago

It’s the Wild West over here P!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

How about Slippin Donny!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

PPO – If only we could get Australia’s gun control here in the US, things might be able to change.

AdLib7 days ago

… and apparently it’s all Obama’s fault! God Help us!

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

Ad, well, it might, if the citizens of the USA suddenly achieved the Nirvana of having Common fucking sense!

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is a robot with a bomb. All Americans should now own bombs! Go for it NRA!

AdLib7 days ago

The fertilizer industry will be boomin! Pun accidental!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

PPO – Actually, 90% of Americans want stronger gun control. This situation is solely about how corrupt our democracy is, that one organization representing the manufacturers oof tools of mass death uses money to have more power than 90% of the American people.

AdLib7 days ago

KT –

AdLib7 days ago

In truth,I have been seeking out things that are real in the world.Like nature.It is about survival in nature,nothing more.I find that it as honest as it gets.We humans were given the “gift of thought” and animals were here for our needs.Turns out they are not stupid and have evolved in ways that put us to shame.I have given up on humans,and the earth will go on long after we make it unliveable for ourselves

Beatlex

7 days ago

Cheer up B, were not all bad.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

I think we now need to startup the NBUA (National Blowing Up Association) that lobbies for Americans to be able to blow up things as is their right under the 2nd Amendment.

AdLib7 days ago

Moral of story. If you are black, in a vehicle and get stopped. DO NOTHING. KEEP YOUR HANDS IN PLAIN SIGHT and don’t under any circumstances give the police any reason to distrust you. Everyone knows that a black man 20 feet away with a penknife puts all police in fear of their flak-jacketed lives and it’s quite ok to shoot.

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

KT,we need the cooperation of all regions and peoples to change.I don’t like those odds

Beatlex

7 days ago

I have one recommendation that would reduce the number of killings by police. Set up a special department, within the FBI, to investigate every questionable killing by a police officer. This might just break that Blue wall of silence that protects these scumbags. What cop wouldn’t fear that?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

We’ll make it B. We’ve seen much worse times.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Isn’t that there already, KT? If not, it bloody should be!

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

PPO – Black people just need to exist to give some racist cops reason to distrust them. What isn’t discussed enough is that there are some men whoo are not emotionally stable enough to be police oofficers but are out there, shooting innocent black people.

AdLib7 days ago

no P, there isn’t.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

What about the environment KT? That is urgent

Beatlex

7 days ago

Ad, sadly agree. BTW, the shooters in Texas, I havent seen much here yet, but were they, by any chance White?

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

That’s pretty much out of my hands. We may end up poisoning ourselves into extinction. I have hope that technology will save us.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

No Oz,1 ex soldier,25,black,lone wolf no muslim ties

Beatlex

7 days ago

Beatlex – I agree with KT, you can also see such nobility in the most modest people. SOme human beings are really incredible.

AdLib7 days ago

Yes Ad,but we need cooperation like yesterday on the environment

Beatlex

7 days ago

KT – Here’s one thing for sure that would reduce the murder of innocent black men by cops…convict one and send him to prison. Then maybe these racists will think twice before looking at black people as expendable and nothing to worry about if they kill them.

AdLib7 days ago

no P, It was (supposedly) just one guy who finally snapped, over the last two killings of innocent black men. I think those two killings were the straw that broke his camel’s back. I understand the why, just not how he addressed it. What he did helps no one. It will, however, increase the urgency of the serious national discussion that we desperately need.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hey PPO, meant to ask, what’s going on with that election over there?

AdLib7 days ago

It’s been up in the air for so long!

AdLib7 days ago

Kt, really? I heard it was multiple snipers! Well, if there were any justification in restricting auto or semi-auto guns from civilians, surely the ability of a lone gunman to hit 11 armed cops and kill 5 must open eyes, somewhere!

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

And what’s the possibility that this vet suffered from PTSD? The sad irony could be that the man who set this mass shooting in motion was Bush.

AdLib7 days ago

Ad,that is what Al Sharpton said.They have been getting away with murder.Choking a guy to death,shooting a teenager from 20 yrds away,breaking a guys neck.All on camera

Beatlex

7 days ago

you would think so, eh P? I have my doubts.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

PPO – Nope, not multiple killers, just the one. And automatic weapons are illegal in the US.

AdLib7 days ago

That could very well be a factor, but I think, for the most part, he just had enough, and reacted in the only way he knew.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Beatlex – Exactly, when racist cops watch the news and see that there is no price to pay for killing innocent plack people, why would they hold back? What have they got to lose. They probably think, “Better safe than sorry, I’ll err on the side of killing innocent black people as long as I kill the bad ones too.”

AdLib7 days ago

I think he wanted to give police a taste of their own medicine, but he sure picked the wrong cops to attack. Dallas has had the least number of police shootings of any large American city.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Ad, (Yawn) GOP-style Liberals are ahead, with only the first week of vote counting, but only by a few seats. They will be able to form a Government, but need Independents and greens to rule. Their large majority has been almost wiped out. Funny thing about politics here. When we have such a close result, the following ‘hung’ Parliament very often enacts more legislation and cooperate on more stuff than a lone Party majority rule.

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

KT – But would you agree that most Americans wouldn’t even imagine AND plan a mass killing no matter how outraged they were at these two recent murders? And most vets would never dream of it. Being in the military may have been part of the problem for someone as mentally defective as this guy.

AdLib7 days ago

in Canada Oz,even though one party rules,both mainly rule in the middle

Beatlex

7 days ago

did anybody see the video of this guy shooting a cop in the back, at close range? Man, you could tell from the viscousness of his actions that he really hated cops. After the cop was down, this guy shot him at least 9 or ten times more.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

PPO – Interesting. I did see there has been an economic hit because of the uncertainty. Politics all around the globe seem so fragile.

AdLib7 days ago

Look at American culture,violent movies and programs are the most popular.

Beatlex

7 days ago

I’m not so sure anymore, Ad. Like I said, I’m surprised this hasn’t happened before, and it may just happen again, in some other city. There is a war going on Ad. It’s just we hate to call it what it is.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – That was the same killer, right?

AdLib7 days ago

Yeah. Utterly viscious. The cop shot him first, but he was wearin a vest, an that little 9mm round basically just bounced off.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Beatlex – I would argue that violent images in video games, movies, etc. have nothing to do with actual violence in the real world. Best argument on that is, all of the same movies and video games Americans see are all oover the world yet only in America do we have this problem. I think the real differential is the promotion of the gun culture and with it, the culture of killing.

AdLib7 days ago

this guy had a large caliber semi-auto rifle, with a butt load of extended mags. Gee, where have we heard that before?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Ad yes,I knew what I said was to broad.Other western countries don’t have that culture.It seems insane

Beatlex

7 days ago

KT – I don’t think it’s a war when one side has the power of authority and the courts to execute the other side and that side can only peacefully protest. There is no physical aggression coming from the BLM side so it’s not a war as much as a conflict with very unbalanced sides.

AdLib7 days ago

Well, the NRA’s blather about good people with guns runs hollow here. All those good cops had guns but STILL couldn’t subdue the bad guy until they used a friggin robot with a grenade.

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

America romanticizes guns. We pretty much always have. guns have always been a part of our culture.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hey, it takes a good robot with a bomb, to stop a bad guy with a gun! Everybody knows that!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – Exactly! If you simply compare this lunatic to every other mass shooting lunatic, I think the similarities show that all felt righteous in murdering who they saw as “the enemy” even though they were innocent people. He may have been black and had racial issues motivating him but in the end, his behavior was idnetical to other mass murderers.

AdLib7 days ago

yeah, it was. No question about it. Violence is simply not a solution or an option.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

PPO – Right, I mentioned above that the NRA will have to change it’s BS to, “The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good robot with a bomb.”

AdLib7 days ago

Homogenous countries are the most peaceful,Nordic countries with better governance.We in Canada call ourselves “multi cultural” America is the “melting pot”

Beatlex

7 days ago

Sorry, Ad! Missed that.

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

Beat, We do here in OZ as well.

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

We’re rapidly becoming the Looney Bin! It’s like the late great George Carlin once said, “When you’re born, you ‘re given aticket to the freak show. When you’re born in America, they give you a front row seat!”

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

BRB!

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

My point is, this does not represent a race war, it should be described as another wacked out mass murderer like the Dark Knight theater shooter and the Colombine lunatics. We have people with defective minds in this country and certain things can set them off. No way to always stop the crazies who want to shoot strangers.

AdLib7 days ago

The righties are already saying a race war has begun. Well, you how those twerps think.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Beatlex – That’s natural but provincial nations can also become very prejudiced in the way they see other races. Look at Brexit.

AdLib7 days ago

Oz,it is not like we don’t have racists,but is not out of control

Beatlex

7 days ago

Helter Skelter Bitches!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – I sure am hoping that the huge defeat of Trump will start a return to sanity by the Repubs, if not their extremists.

AdLib7 days ago

oh man, me too. That’s why I want Hillary to win in the largest lanslide in American history. I want the republicans severely shamed.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – The RW WANTS a race war because then they have permission too openly advocate for and even participate in the genocide of minorities. Trump has unleashed these monsters to express their racism, if the MSM validated this concept of race war, there will be many more attacks by whites on minorities, some fatal. As it is, violence against Muslims is surging.

AdLib7 days ago

KT – Yes, the Repubs shouldn’t just lose, they need to be utterly humiliated and forced to abandon following the extremist tail that wags the dog.

AdLib7 days ago

i’m afraid that’s not really a stretch, Ad. I think most of them would love such a war.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

I think most Americans are pretty decent people. A little kookie, but decent. Decency needs a majority.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – Oh yeah, they are drooling over it, many are actually happy that these officers were shot because they think it may get them to the race war they crave. About 30% of this country is certifiable.

AdLib7 days ago

I wonder if they’ve found a big hole in the desert, to hide in while the war rages.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – I see decency in people almoost every day, even little things like helping someone out with a little thing or donating time or money to a good cause. Most people are good and prove it, IMO.

AdLib7 days ago

True dat, Ad.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – I think the racists in militias are all excited…except poor Cliven Bundy and his loser family and gang.

KT – I wonder if maybe a landslide against Trump could win Dems the House too?

AdLib7 days ago

Yeah, there were some zaney movie in the 60s and early 70s.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Oh that would be sweet. We need mature, principled adults to represent us, not a bunch of cheap crooks.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

I’ve got to imagine that the Dems have a ton more oppo research on Trump they’re hanging onto for OOctober. By then, he could be buried! And what about that girl who was 13 when she claimed Trump sexually assaulted her? If that at least appears legit, that could crush him like a bug. But for selfish reasons, I want him to get the GOP nom first before that story really blows up.

AdLib7 days ago

Me too. I know the repubs are crapping their Sansabelts, just thinking about Trump being the nominee.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

The GOP Convention, with so many legit people refusing to go and so many cheesy people appearing there, could come off like a lridiculous, ow budget Celebrity Dancing With The Stars miniseries.

AdLib7 days ago

I do think the GOP convention will be like a horiffic car accident that you can’t stop watching.

AdLib7 days ago

I’m definitely going to watch……from a great distance. Like my living room. I wonder if Clint Chesthair will be speaking to all the empty chairs!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

And Trump looks like he only has 2 VP choices, Newt Gingrich or Mike Pence, both hated hasbeens that don’t appeal to anyone but the Repubs already supporting Trump.

AdLib7 days ago

Did Christie bow out? I mean waddle out?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – Aw, you’re not going to attend and report for PlanetPOV?!

AdLib7 days ago

Not a chance. Bullet proof vests are expensive!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – Christie is rumored to be mostly out of the running. His polling with Repubs is bad, in NJ is bad and the Bridgegate stuff is still hanging over his head.

AdLib7 days ago

What if we pay for the bulletproof vest? You’ll have to buy your own helmet though.

AdLib7 days ago

Good. He is a shameless creature.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

He’s had his head so far up Trump’s posterior, he could tell what TRump had for breakfast!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

And I don’t think Trump would want Christie to upstage him. “Hey, I’m the asshole in the spotlight, get outta my way!”

AdLib7 days ago

there’s not room for two assholes here!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Hasn’t Christie looked so spineless and disgusting for that? He’s so clueless, his slavishness to Trump has made him look like such a slimy, greedy worm.

AdLib7 days ago

“Do you know anyone who has two assholes? Trump will be the only asshole here!”

AdLib7 days ago

oh man, I think his desire has definitely gotten the best of him. It’s downright pitiful.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Trump speaks out of both holes at once. In different languages too.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

And you know what else is amazing? Look how such a huge swath of Republicans have destroyed their futures by running in the primary. Jeb! is over, Marco is over, Walker is over, Christie is over, on and on!

AdLib7 days ago

KT – Trump actually looks like he’s doing a handstand and always speaking out of his ass.

AdLib7 days ago

I hope K-Sick is on his way out also. He’s not fooling anybody with his midwestern, aw shucks charade. He’s as big a snake as the rest of them.

I don’t know what will be more satisfying, seeing Romney’s family after he lost or watching Trump’s awful family when he loses?

AdLib7 days ago

she the best we have at this point in time. She certainly has her faults, but she is smart as a whip, tough as nails and has tons of experience. I’ll take that any day.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Maybe Melania will leave him and go back to Slovinia! Naw, he’ll still be rich.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT,for sure,And I think she wants change,or at least progress on some issues

Beatlex

7 days ago

She does. I firmly believe that. Her and Bernie weren’t really all that far appart. Hillary is just more pragmatic and incrementalist.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Beatlex – Hillary will be our next President. Unfortunately, I don’t expect her too be the most liked as President or the most successful, I really don’t know what principles she has that she’ll stand by but she does lie a bit which means the MSM will have plenty of ammunition too damage her if she does so as President. At least she can appoint decent SCOTUS judges, the most important thing she can do, whether she gets re-elected or not.

AdLib7 days ago

True Ad,that is huge.

Beatlex

7 days ago

I know one thing for sure. Hillary will protect all the progress that’s been made over, oh, the last three decades or so. A republican would wipe it all out in the first 4 years.

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Not even a choice for any halfway intelligent voter, Hillary can be the only choice. Only the emotionally crippled will be voting for Trump and foortunately, that’s a minority in this country.

AdLib7 days ago

Thank Joe Pesci!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

Damn my “o” button, still duplicating!

AdLib7 days ago

The button or the Os?

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

KT – I agree that for the most part, Hillary will keep Obama’s policies in place. I just don’t have high expectations that once in office, she will really fight hard for big Progressive issues…but I sure want to be wrong.

AdLib7 days ago

Well folks, time for me to retire for the evening. Take care! She may just surprise ua all, Ad!

KillgoreTrout

7 days ago

All the extra “o”s in my comments are because my “o” button on my keyboard is messed up! Do I buy a new computer just for the “o” button???

AdLib7 days ago

I hope so KT, nothing would make me happier!

AdLib7 days ago

Well, looks like it’s time to shut down the Vox bar for the night. Have a great weekend Beatlex!
